@robby. How do you know the cameras weren't working? In fact if they happen to be pointing the right way and the incident occurred in an area covered by them then I would suggest it may well be captured on camera. However, no one is actually employed 24/7 to sit and monitor them. I would further suggest that the owner of the generator could have helped by not leaving it there in the first place.

It was probably stolen by one of the other visting stall holders...... All i can say is bigger fool them, for leaving an expensive bit of kit out overnight.....
